So, why did this happen? As you’ll learn in Lesson 5, it’s possible to create different layouts and resources for different device configurations -- everything from screen size, to pixel density, and device orientation. Keep in mind that some of these values -- such as device orientation and screen width -- can change at runtime, so Android activities are destroyed and recreated whenever a device configuration changes -- because the layout, and all the resources within it, could be completely different based on something as simple as a screen rotation.
And that’s not the only time your Activity might find itself unexpectedly being killed.
